BWH Named to Becker’s Hospital Review in Four Categories

BWH recently was recognized in four categories by Becker’s Hospital Review, a major source of business information for health care leaders.

BWH was one of 25 hospitals and health systems named to Becker’s Hospital Review list of Great Cardiovascular Programs. Hospitals on the list are selected for their high distinctions and awards given from other organizations and publications for heart care. They feature some of the most advanced technology, highest quality of care and best reputations in the specialty.

BWH’s Department of Orthopedic Surgery made Becker’s Hospital Review’s list of 40 great orthopedic and spine programs. The Department of Orthopedic Surgery is known for its innovations in joint replacement surgeries, including the design of implants, and also specializes in cartilage repair, microvascular hand and upper extremity surgery, podiatry, trauma, bone oncology and sports medicine.

BWH also was listed among the 100 Best Places to Work in Healthcare for 2010 and as one of the 30 best hospitals for putting patients’ needs first, driving innovation and setting the bar for high quality care.
